AP Art Update 4/4

A key part of the AP Art portfolio is showing students' preliminary work, which gives AP readers a look into how students created their final pieces. Just like scratch paper used in math, sketchbooks show the important steps in the artist's thinking and making process. These sketchbooks are full of early drawings, notes, and changes, providing valuable insights into each artist's ideas and progress. By displaying these sketchbooks, we highlight the often unseen but important stages of making art. Here, we show examples from AP artists' sketchbooks, showing the careful and creative efforts that lead to their amazing artworks.
